The Polyurethanes Industry Directory for the Americas. Price, $190. Rapra Technology Ltd., Shawbury, Shrewsbury, Shropshire, U.K. (1999).

The 1999 edition of this source of information for the U.S. polyurethanes industry has been overhauled, with all entries fully updated and revised. With new additions being constantly made, this edition is said to be an easy and efficient way to find vendors, customers and suppliers. American polyurethane companies are listed under raw materials, systems, equipment, machinery, finished goods manufacturers or suppliers, and also by the markets they serve. By subdividing these areas into over 100 sub-groups, identification and location of a service, and therefore supplier, is said to be as simple and quick as possible. The directory is also available on CD-ROM.
